I wonder what sizes their helmets come in. Funny how helmet manufacturers, distributors and retailers often overlook this particular detail...

[Hillbilly]

Sizes are from XXS to XXL. Here's a glimps of the GP1 Fugitive, GP-1 Racer and Razor ranges. They also make open face and Trail bike helmets, as well as armoured textile clothing for riders.

Rjays GP1 Fugitive Helmet
• Fibreglass construction • Removable/washable interior lining • Removable breathguard • No tool visor removal • Chin vent directs fresh air up to visor to assist defogging with side air vents channeling air into the interior of the helmet for extra comfort • 3 air intake vents with four exhaust vents extracting stale air. • Quality finish with a superb fit.

Rjays GP1 Racer Helmet• Fibreglass construction • Removable/washable interior lining • Removable breathguard • No tool visor removal • Chin vent directs fresh air up to visor to assist defogging with side air vents channeling air into the interior of the helmet for extra comfort • 3 air intake vents with four exhaust vents extracting stale air. • Quality finish with a superb fit.

Rjays Razor Graphic Helmet
* ABS construction * Removable / washable interior liner * No tool required to remove visor * Removable breath guard * 2 chin vents to assist in visor defogging * 2 intake and 2 exhaust fans * Double d-ring retension system

Of course, plain solid colur versions of these helmets are also available.

Ype! You can find them here: http://www.rjays.com.au but remember the prices quoted are in Aussie dollars.

What honestly got me interested in a local product was this review of the GP-1 Fugitive in Issue 56 (2nd August) of Australian Motor Cycle News i've scanned and attached. Tried to convert it to PDF format, but the file ended up being close to 900kb.

'Coming' to NZ!

There have been ads for RJays products in Kiwi Rider Mag and Various Motomail flyers for the past 18 months.

Maybe not the helmets. When I asked that was the reply I got.

Maybe one and a half... If you were taller you'de get the other half.

Careful what you wish for, R Jays are linked to a large 'warehouse' style retailing operation from Aust. If they come here in full force, you'll find the selection of brands and possibly even outlets reduced.
Just like the warehouse did to small retailers.
Which may be fine, if all you want is cheap.

See my sig and then take a squiz at my profile pic.... I hope I never have to test them out for real!

Black is quite slimming, don't you think...?
